I commited it before you answered. Mea culpa. Today I checked wether it
works with JDK 1.2 and it doesn, but other parts of OJB don't.
DefaultConnectionFactory used JNDI, which was not part of JDK1.2. I've
added jndi.jar (which is only 96kb) to the repository. Additionally the
reversedb GUI doesn't compile with 1.2 so I just added it to excludes in
build.properties (localy only, of course). We should either add
build.properties to the preprocessing (which I don't think is a good idea)
or just tell JDK 1.2 users to add it to build.properties manually (not a
perfect solution either).

We could move the tools to a seperate ant-target, so the default build will
work with JDK 1.2 and reversedb & co would be in another target (I don't
think that making reversedb work with 1.2 is worth the trouble).

btw, could we modify the mailing list setup so that replies go to the list
by default? Sometimes I reply to posts on this mailinglist only to see that
I sent the reply to the poster instead of the mailing list, which prevents
discussions to stay on the list.
